Happy Mother’s Day!<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"FromFrom My Heart To Yours… Happy Mother’s Day!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Happy Mother’s Day to my mom, to my sister, to my daughter-in-laws, my niece, my aunts, my friends, and all<\/em> the moms around the globe.<\/p>\n

I wish you joy, the sweet memories of when your children were young if they are grown or gone, of their smiling faces, warm hands, sparkling eyes, and big hugs. Those were and are the best.<\/p>\n

I have loved being a mom to my two sons, even when things were messy, hard, or just plain complicated. I’m proud of the good, strong, caring, compassionate men that they have become with every fiber of my being.<\/p>\n

Again, Happy Mother’s Day.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n

Mia<\/p>\n
